Given the equation:

(4 + 5 x 6 - 6)/(10 - 7)

Solve the equation.

Solution:

In order to solve the equation, we simply needed to apply the rules of PEMDAS, which means that we need to start first with the parenthesis, exponent, multiplication, division, addition and lastly subtraction. In our case we will start first by equating the values inside the parenthesis.

= (4 + 5 x 6 - 6)/(10 - 7)

= (4 + 30 - 6) / (3)

= 28/3

= 9.33333…

Since we have a repeating decimal, we can either equate it with a repeating word enclosed with a parenthesis, a dash line or an ellipsis. In our case we will use the ellipsis.

Final answer:

= 9.33333…
